Main Page...

Just out of curiosity, thought I might mention.

When someone comes to the main page, they'd really like clickable links for the main sections, Mobs, Areas, Items, Classes/Races, etc. And, when you do click on areas, why is the first list of areas actually a list of Mob/Item lists for that area. For instance, if I go to the area page looking for something, say, on Mithril Hall, the first time I see Mithril Hall I click on it, but it's not a map or info on the area, it's a page with all the links to items and mobs.

just a thought, nothing more. Love the page.  :-)

• That is a good observation. Unfortunately, I can't do anything about it since the only up to date list is the Areas category page :/ It is an issue, since newcomers will wonder where the actual areas are, but there's nothing effective that can be done about it, sadly :/. --Poromenos 07:57, 17 January 2007 (EST)

Information category

• I think it might be preferable to have the section on the main page which is currently assigned to the Items category changed to the Information category. Items is largely incomplete and Information really does have some decent content in there. What do you reckon? -Tokai 05:16, 19 August 2007 (CDT)
  • I'd say that is a good idea, I have unlocked the homepage (since new user registration is disabled anyway) so you can have your way with it. --Poromenos 18:34, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

Still in progress, I'm not the best at layout, but wanted to try and outline all of the information that a portal into a video game would probably relay. Anyhow, thoughts? I understand that a lot of items still aren't populated and the class pages aren't very robust right now, but I think drawing people's attention to those pages should get them updated quicker than burying that information.
